Oh and here is a picture of him with his new stuffed lamb!

Well, I got the stuffed animal and have had it for a while. He loves to wrestle with it, cuddle with it, but barely licks it. Glad I got it though, surprised how much he likes it. The licking of my face has subsided a bit, he doesn't do it for nearly as long now. I think it naturally is just...

Wow. I admire your dedication to helping all those foster kittens! I've decided getting him a small stuffed animal is the way to go as I can put it in between my face and his when he is on my chest licking. I might rub it with some catnip and of course pet and praise him when he licks it - and...

Well, I added another play session around 6:30pm but that hasn't stopped the licking at bedtime. He also licks the bedspread so don't think a fleece blanket will help. I am sort of getting used to it, and the stinging, lol. The vinegar wasn't helpful enough to keep doing it and I don't want to...

I'm glad to hear that a cat mostly outgrew the tendency. @catlover73 - Did you moisturize before bed too or only in the morning?

Well, I'm at my desk most of the day as I am an online student (when I'm not working p/t). In the morning he gets fresh food, we cuddle with coffee at the desk (he has his own big soft desk chair right beside mine), I do some work, then I shower (and he watches or jumps in for a bit). After...

I tried apple cider vinegar on my face last night and the licking was less, not gone, but less, he moved over to my neck and shoulder which doesn't hurt as much. If I don't get a bottle, will he eventually stop this on his own?

Thanks for all the replies! I'm thinking of using apple cider vinegar on my face tonight as it is not toxic to cats, esp. in the tiny amount he would ingest before, I'm guessing, he stops licking. It is also safe for my face as I have oily skin. I hadn't thought of learning tricks as...

Hi Catsknowme and thank-you for the warm welcome! A bottle is an idea, but how then would I get him off the bottle, and when? I am going to try wearing face cream tonight to see if that discourages him (but if it doesn't I can't let him ingest it so will wash it off). Will let you know how that...

Hi All, I just adopted a 3 month old kitten from a foster home with many cats 3 days ago. He seems pretty much well adjusted for such a short time. But when I'm laying in bed he gets on my chest and licks, licks, licks my entire face for a long time, to the point where it stings. I can stop him...

Thank-you guys for all the input. I will wait until kitty is big enough and agile enough to navigate a toilet with the last stage tray in it. I don't think I will ever take away the last stage tray as a full toilet seat is too big for any cat (imo). This also means I can have a layer between the...

Hi there, I'm planning on getting a kitten at the end of September and want to use the Litter Kwitter Toilet Training Kit to teach it, gently, to use the toilet. I would let it use a regular box for about 2 weeks as everything is so new to it, then introduce the Litter Kwitter toilet seat with...
